Optical PAM-4 generation via electromagnetically induced transparency in nitrogen-vacancy centers

A scheme of optical four-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4) is proposed based on phase-dependent electromagnetic-induced transparency (EIT) in nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers. For a closed structure, its transmission depends on the relative phase of applied fields. Based on EIT, the PAM-4 may be...
